A rare property, two parcels together offering .78 acres, 130′ of frontage on Merrimon corridor in North Asheville. Can be a redevelopment or investment opportunity with high traffic (17,500 cars/day) in the heart of the desirable Grace Neighborhood. One mile from downtown Asheville, 1/2 mile from UNC-A. The area is just south of the very desirable Beaver Dam and Asheville Country Club area, and is known for walkability and proximity to downtown.
The Grace Building is on the highly trafficked Merrimon Ave. (17,500 cars daily) with 130’ of frontage. Pro forma suggests a cap rate of 7.5% with spaces full at market rates. Plenty of surface parking especially with the included 0.31 acre lot behind the building.
